Well ive seen some pretty sensative Ответы over this question. But, I will try and be as unbiased as possible.
Basically the Манга drifts very far away from the anime. It didnt run like most Аниме series, because the Книги werent finished during the animes creation. So the events differ quite dramatically.
But, regardless of Elfen Lieds success, it doesnt appear to have any sort of секунда season coming out any time soon.
I have literally emailed ADV films several times, and even emailed the writer on a few occassions for еще information.
Still to this день the best Аниме ive personally seen. And nothing will change that. I think another series for this controversal Аниме will only add to my joy. But, as mentioned before they would need to think about the differences between the book and the anime.
